Description

Visnews filmed May 21 the arrival of the Shah of Persia and members of the Dutch
Royal Family for a dinner given in his honour by Cabinet Ministers in the Treveszaal
Hall, The Hague.

The Shah, on a three-day visit to the Netherlands, was accompanied by Queen
Juliana, Prince Bernhard and two of their daughters, Crown Princess Beatrix and
Princess Irene.

Led by Professor Dr. De Quay, Holland's President, Cabinet Ministers acted as
hosts to the Royal guests in the centuries-old Treveszaal Hall. Gay with roses
and sweet peas, the hall was lit by candles. Silver candlesticks were lent by
the Rijskmuseum, Amsterdam specially for the occasion.

It was in the Treveszaal Hall that the armistice ending the 80 years was between
the Netherlands and Spain was signed in the 17-Century.
